Automated Meter reading systems are an invaluable technological advancement that can lead to a better standard of living, owing to the fact that metering has become a part and parcel of our mundane lives. It solves many issues of the traditional meter reading system like need for human resources, efficiency, accuracy, delayed work, unavailability of customer during metering visit by employee, etc. Moreover it is more economical and helps to save energy in a more efficient and effective way. Furthermore it has a very notable advantage of having the ability to predict the energy demands of the future, starting from every household to the entire planet. The main objective of the smart energy meter is to not only measure the consumer’s power consumption but also to transmit the readings of the meter to utility office every week/day/hour with the help of GSM module or by uploading it onto the cloud. Readings of the meter will be taken out using Rs485 Module and will be given to Raspberry pi and transmitted further to utility office with the help of GSM module or by uploading it onto cloud and at the same time consumption in terms of units as well as rupees will be transmitted to consumer which they can access in SMS or application. Electrical power has become indispensable to human survival and progress which leads to the enhancement of the people’s standard of life by the introduction of automation in to energy distribution and management. With the constant development in technology, the need of automated meter reading systems is also increasing.it is basically Raspberry pi based operational system. The technology of e-metering (Electronic Metering) has gone through rapid technological advancements and there is increased demand for a reliable and efficient Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) system.

The Imaging Plate (IP) is a new type imaging device, which was developed for diagnostic x ray imaging. We have reported that usage of the IP for a TEM has many merits; those are high sensitivity, wide dynamic range, and good linearity. However in the previous report the reading system was prototype drum-type-scanner, and IP was also experimentally made, which phosphor layer was 50μm thick with no protective layer. So special care was needed to handle them, and they were used only to make sure the basic characteristics. In this article we report the result of newly developed reading, printing system and high resolution IP for practical use. We mainly discuss the characteristics of the IP here. (Precise performance concerned with the reader and other system are reported in the other article.)Fig.1 shows the schematic cross section of the IP. The IP consists of three parts; protective layer, phosphor layer and support.

Recent neuroimaging and electrophysiological studies reveal how the reading system successfully adapts when phonological codes are relatively coarse-grained due to reduced auditory input during development. New evidence suggests that the optimal end-state for the reading system may differ for deaf versus hearing adults and indicates that certain neural patterns that are maladaptive for hearing readers may be beneficial for deaf readers. This chapter focuses on deaf adults who are signers and have achieved reading success. Although the left-hemisphere-dominant reading circuit is largely similar in both deaf and hearing individuals, skilled deaf readers exhibit a more bilateral neural response to written words and sentences than their hearing peers, as measured by event-related potentials and functional magnetic resonance imaging. Skilled deaf readers may also rely more on neural regions involved in semantic processing than hearing readers do. Overall, emerging evidence indicates that the neural markers for reading skill may differ for deaf and hearing adults.
